Just got the program and have gotten started on session 1 and the relaxation cd. I've had anxiety/panic attacks/depression all my life. I've seen countless docs over the years. I am on zoloft and xanax now. I would really like to kick my anxiety outta here for once and for all!

Welcome Rae59! I hope you are able to see all your dreams come to pass! I have been through the program once and starting it again - this time a little slower pace. I too take xanax and I am looking forward to getting off one day. Wish you the best.

I received my program yesterday, just got done with Session 1. I was so skeptical ordering it but I am literally at my wits end. I can not handle another day of panic attacks, they are getting too painful. I am having anxiety literally everyday, feeling nervous inside. This Anxiety SUCKS!!!!! I am looking forward to all the other sessions. Taking it one day at a time.

Maui Girl,
One thing I know from dealing with panic attacks/anxiety disorder is that.... It does pass.
You will feel better.

I know how you feel. Really. I've had horrible bouts where the anxiety just makes me feel SOOOO horrible. I mean it stops me in my tracks for weeks if not longer. And I think I must be really sick or something. I certainly feel sick! But when I have managed to get my anxiety level turned down I feel a lot better.

Lucinda's program is one of the best things I've ever found to learn how to stop anxiety. She seems to have taken a lot of the advice out there that actually works and put it all together in a way we sufferers can actually use.

That seems to be the difference with her program. Shrinks and others may tell you some of these things but I've never had one really tell me 'What to do! And how to do it.' Not in anything like Lucinda's comprehensive way. I think this is because she has been where we are and found the way out.

I can tell just from the relaxation exercise and the first session that this is for real. Stick with it!
